Review:
The Gerechtigkeitsbrunnen, or Fountain of Justice, is another Frankfurt landmark placed on the Römerberg, the square located near the Römer, the city’s beautiful municipal building. The fountain was originally built in 1543 as a tribute to the city, but the statue that sits here today was reconstructed later. The main focus of the statue is Justitia, the goddess of justice, who holds above her head a sword and scales. Around her on the four corners of the fountain’s pedestal are four nymphs from whose breasts water flows. The towering bronze statue is a recognizable symbol of Frankfurt and one of the city’s most common photo and meeting spots.
